It’s weird how loose and stylized the classic characters look against how meticulously-copied-from-Google-Image-searched-promotional-material the newer characters look. Still looks amazin’ though!

Why is Donald wearing a skirt?

Nice art, but man, Mickey does not look good in that loose, rubbery style. His original retro look is best. Wish Disney would use that for more than just T-shirts.

Donald is portraying designer Marc Jacobs who is know for wearing skirts/kilts.

I think all the character choices are great, especially Donald as Gaultier and Goofy/Mickey as Dolce and Gabbana.

I, for one, do not think this artwork is good at all. As a matter of fact, it’s an atrocious layout, muddled concept, and hideously rendered. It’s ugly and unappealing from top to bottom. It’s not even particularly well drawn.

These are such fun fashion spreads. John Galliano, Alber Elbaz, Karl Lagerfeld, and Dolce & Gabbana with stylish stubble are well captured, as are the clothes. I’m open to updated targeted Disney comic strips. I’d rather subscribe to this than Vogue.

The Schroder link has some nice drawings of his of the Disney characters. Lots of fun. But this ad and spread look pretty ugly. It’s obvious it’s been committeed to death by ad execs at Disney and probably elsewhere. They’re relentlessly unclear and yes, unappealing.
